If There's Not a Hell (There Ought to Be) - Bobby Bare (Bobby Bare)[00:00:00]

Farmer Jones ran short on seeds[00:00:06]

So he borrowed from his neigbor Sam[00:00:09]

The fall brought Jones a flourishin' crop[00:00:12]

While his neighbor's all burned brown [00:00:14]

Sam had a wife and thirteen kids[00:00:19]

He worked to feed each day[00:00:22]

With hungry pride he begged for help[00:00:24]

And he was turned away [00:00:27]

He was forced to sell his farm[00:00:32]

For half its worth[00:00:34]

To this man he thought a friend to be[00:00:35]

If there's not a hell there ought to be [00:00:39]

Mary Ann was sweet sixteen[00:00:50]

Never had been around[00:00:53]

A child as pure as a mountain stream[00:00:55]

That ran through her hometown [00:00:58]

Then happened by the slick Tom Shark[00:01:02]

In his hand she was clay[00:01:05]

She got caught and faced the shame[00:01:08]

And he laughed and went his way [00:01:10]

Now no one knows where she's at[00:01:15]

Her folks sent her away[00:01:18]

If there's not a hell there ought to be [00:01:22]

Widow Brown worked since Joe died[00:01:33]

And tried to save her pay[00:01:36]

To give nine children beans and bread[00:01:38]

And pretty ties on Sunday [00:01:41]

She got sick and slipped behind[00:01:45]

The rent she had to meet[00:01:48]

They told her they were sorry[00:01:51]

And they kicked her out in the street [00:01:53]

And that same day they[00:01:58]

Came and took her kids away[00:02:01]

If there's not a hell there ought to be [00:02:04]

Young Billy Brown he took a trip[00:02:15]

To keep his country free[00:02:18]

We're all proud of what he done[00:02:21]

For the good old USA [00:02:23]

But somewhere there's a mighty big man[00:02:27]

Who kept this a goin' on[00:02:30]

The personal game wealth and fame[00:02:33]

They did their league all wrong [00:02:35]

All wrapped up in the stars and stripes[00:02:40]

Bill came home one day[00:02:43]

If there's not a hell there ought to be [00:02:46]

If there's not a hell there ought to be[00:02:52]

If there's not a hell there ought to be[00:02:57]
